In Accord with Teh

T’ai Chi Chih should not be thought of as exercise. Exercise tires one, requires effort, is not done softly, and usually causes considerable perspiration. TCC, however, seems to energise one, and the balancing of the circulating Chi makes one feel good. Many students write me that they have begun to live A TCC life, and that the practice has increased their Joy in living.

It is important for teachers to teach TCC correctly, for it must be done properly to get the maximum benefits. The softness, circularity, and polarity are all-important. If a teacher does not have an understanding of this, then it would be good for that teacher to audit several classes and to ask questions. Do not let yourself be a poor teacher, just scraping along in order to earn a little money. This certainly is not in accord with TEH [power of inner sincerity]. Too, when a teacher sends a candidate to a Teachers’ Training Course, it is expected that the candidate perform and understand what TCC stands for.

At 82 years of age I find that each new period in my life is better than the previous one. Naturally, I am grateful, and much of the gratitude is to TCC.

The great treasure of TCC lies in the sincere and capable teachers. TCC’s brilliant future depends upon them. This is why I have never taken a cent from a teacher; what I want from them is not money. When I see hospitals, prisons, senior citizen clubs, etc. latching on to TCC, that is great reward. It is nice to see people entering the Cosmic Rhythm by learning and doing TCC.
